Nairobi City Park cemetery Jean Wainwright d. 10 Apr 1950 aged 53-4

There is some confusion because Ancestry Family tree says he married c. 1926 Harriet Jane Milburn (prev. m. to Montague Herbert Atkins 1887-1924). She was b. 1891 in Chipping Sodbury and apparently died 10 Apr 1950 in Nairobi (the date of Jean's death). Are Harriet Jane and Jean the same person?
